I haven't submited my email to any sites and I haven't posted it anywhere, so the spam must have came from somewhere. I think it was from gmail to show how well there Spam filter works..

I get around 3 spam emails a day, every day almost the same stuff just with different titles. The suspicous thing is, that they're addressed to my Gmail account instead of spider-web, and barely a few people not on my MSN contacts know my Gmail account....

I haven't had any spam the whole time I've got it. Are you sure you haven't written it on a forum somewhere, though. I have, but never in its actual form. Spider, I don't know what your address is, but if it's something 'obvious' it could just be guessed by a spam generating thingy. They send out a lot of emails to random addresses not knowing whether or not they exist.. there's no way a bot could get to your email since July 13th, and I'm not sure you even had GMail then...

Same thing for anyone else that has your address in their address book, actually. The only way to be completely safe from spam is to not have an email address.
